Commas and Semi Colons ~ 2007

Starting on 18 April and ending on 28 September, this was the most extended crop circle season in the phenomenon’s history. Why was this? The reason was mainly due to the terrible weather in late summer which left the farmer’s unable to harvest many fields so devastated by the rain that they simply ploughed the crop back into the ground.

The Flower of Life formation in oil seed rape (canola) Waden Hill led the field and was beautifully placed in between the equally ancient

Sites of Silbury Hill and Avebury Complex. (Click images to enlarge)

The extended Yin Yang at Avebury Avenue and the `triune` formation of 3 crescents placed around a central circle below the White Horse at Alton Barnes were also found in oil seed rape (canola) and were the next to join the forthcoming season’s huge array of wondrous works of art.However glorious these formations may have been, the pick of the season was just about to appear. Covering some 12 acres and lying between Swindon and the northern edge of the Marlborough Downs, lies the ancient Iron Age hill fort of Barbury Castle. Once the battleground of the Saxons against the Britons in AD 556, it rightfully boasts fantastic views over the surrounding countryside. On the 1 June a curious signature appeared in one the fields lying to the north side. Flying over it shortly after it appeared, it seemed an unusual series of ratchets and circles within a circular frame. Posting my images on the Internet, I received an email from retired astrophysicist Mike Reed who had seen my images on Linda Moulton- Howes excellent web site http://www.earthfiles.com/ Reed has impeccable references having worked at the University of Arizona in Tuscon on the Multi Mirror Telescope (MMT) at Mt Hopkins, a joint venture with the Harvard Smithsonian Observatory. He told me “I noticed the Barbury Castle pattern posted on the Earthfiles site yesterday. It is apparently a coded image representing the first ten digits of Pi (the ratio of the circumference of a circle to the diameter). The tenth digit has even been correctly rounded up. The little dot near the centre is the decimal point."

"The attached diagram (Mike Reed kindly allowed me to make the diagram slightly clearer and Andreas Mueller then finished it professionally) shows the analysis that reveals the code. It is based on ten angular segments with the radial jumps being the indicator of each segment. Starting at the centre and counting the number of 1/10th segments in each section contained by the change in radius clearly shows the values of the first ten digits in the value of Pi."

“Pi = 3.141592654, to 10 places rounded up. The actual value to 12 places is 3.14159265358. You can see that the tenth digit has been rounded up from 3 to 4 since the next digit is a 5."

“Is there any evidence that this circle is man made? If not this is certainly an interesting development.”

As we were taught at school, Pi or π is a mathematical constant which represents the ratio of any circle’s circumference to its diameter in Euclidean geometry, which is the same as the ratio of a circle's area to the square of its radius. Pi is one of the most important mathematical constants: many formulae from mathematics, science and engineering involve π

Charles Mallett visited the formation on the morning after it had appeared and reported that there was no mud on the fallen crop. As it had rained that night, that is an interesting comment for when the soil is wet just walking down a tramline leaves us with soil building up on the soles of our shoes until it feels as though we are walking on stilts. It would have been humanly impossible to construct a formation in those conditions without leaving any trace of mud; indeed I have been into several formations over the years in which the flattened crop has been covered in mud. However others reported seeing a small amount of mud. Had others visited the formation by then?

This formation has an affinity with the famous 1991 Barbury Castle formation that also contained ratchets. At the time classicist John Michell's interpretation was a follows: “The principle of Three in One is in itself a cosmic law. The whole structure is also a collection of numeric, musical and geometrical harmonies which founded the prevailing order in every old civilization.It demonstrates the principle of Three in One by means of a central circle which exactly contains the combined areas of the three circles around it. Moreover, the sum of all the four circular areas in the diagram is 31680 square feet... In traditional cosmology, this was taken to be the measure around the sub-lunary world, and the early Christian scholars calculated the number 3168 as emblematic of Lord Jesus Christ. The same number was previously applied to the name of a leading principle in the pagan religion." Continuing my research into the possible changes in water, I buried bottles of 100ml Volvic water on 7th June with a fellow researcher; two control samples were buried some distance from the formation and four inside. I collected them on the 23rd June and was considerably surprised to find that both the control samples had been unearthed and left lying on the surface on the ground. Several questions spring to mind: a. How did anyone apart from my companion and myself know where I had buried the bottles in such a vast expanse of field? b. Why should they have been left on the surface? c. As it is generally widely known that this is my particular area of research, why did no one get in touch with me? d. As many people and groups of people were visiting the formation, clearly they cannot have been exposed for very long.

Fearing that if people were able to locate the control samples so easily, would they also have found the bottles buried inside? With dread and trepidation I entered the circle and to my great relief, finding no exposed bottles, set about locating them. Success! They were duly packaged and send to be tested using the standard YARA water test for trace minerals. On the whole over the years, the most consistent anomalies have been changes in Nitrogen/Nitrate levels against the levels in the control samples. Indeed the increase in the Nitrate content is a trend we would expect to find in genuine formations. We now know that some form of strong electrical force or field is present when a formation appears. We also know that this is likely to be a plasma, a gas containing a high density of electrons and positive ions. When in a gas they stop behaving like individuals and start behaving like an integrated whole, such as a swarm of bees or a shoal of fish etc that can move simultaneously with tremendous force and speed. When this condition occurs, nitric oxide, not to be confused with nitrous oxide (laughing gas) can result. It is a by-product of combustion and can be formed by lightning. It was this situation that encouraged Jim Lyons to suggest to ADAS that there might be residual traces of Nitrogen in the soil that could be detected and measured.

However considering that the nitrate level in an unopened bottle of Volvic water is 6.38 mg/l, the results were unexpected.

Jim Lyons is a professional engineer, specialising in electronics. After a career in the aerospace industry where he was one time Chief Engineer responsible for the development of the Harrier Jump Jet, he is now in the academic world at York University. He sent me this report:

448 449 450 451 452 453 454 Sample Numbers

“The results for water testing in this formation showed very confusing results. This year, to avoid any confusion over base line levels, a non-buried water sample was taken. The only significant results were a very high nitrate concentration for one sample – 448 at 35.5 mg/l. This is way above the remaining samples, all at just below 2mg/l. This is by far the highest ever record. One is tempted to say it is simply a misprint. However, the automated analysis methods together with the direct result printout technique tend to rule this out. One can speculate on very local concentrations of energy close to the sample, however, the consistency of the remainder of these results tends to rule out this possibility. It must remain something of a mystery.

The other effect that was noticeable was the variation in bicarbonate levels. This is not the only time this has been observed. In the 2003 Osborne St. George results, there were similar trends but at a higher level than the ~ 100 mg/l level observed in this formation. A correlation analysis shows little connection. However, theoretically, its ion (hydrogen carbon) structurally has a carbon atom surrounded by three oxygen atoms. It has strong affinity with sodium and magnesium. The nitrate ion has a similar chemical bond structure with the carbon atom of bicarbonate replaced by a nitrogen atom. The logical assumption is to suggest that there is an interchange between these structures affecting the sodium/magnesium concentrations. A study of the results shows absolutely no change between of the magnesium ( 9mg/l) and sodium (11 mg/l) levels in all samples. Again, this is very puzzling. Also, variations in electrical conductivity which have shown variations previously, remain very consistent this to me."

The bottle (448) showing the high nitrate level was buried in the centre of the centre circle of the ellipsis to the north. The bottle (449) showing the unusually high bicarbonate level was buried in the outer ratchet on the south side. Bottles 452, 453 & 454 were control samples, 454 being the unburied control sample.

On Sunday 13 July the scientific research group assembled at the Avebury Study room. Jim Lyons, Dr Roger Taylor, Billy Gawn, Dr Konstantin Pavlidis along with guinea pigs Christopher Weeks, Anne Leonard, Jackie Faulkner, William Betts and Molly Guinness. Jim Lyons conducted an interesting experiment measuring the Power of the Mind that he explains as follows:

“It is now well known that the use of mental process can affect material objects. A decade or so ago, this statement would have been dismissed as nonsense. However the medical world now openly recognises that thoughts influence the body’s state of health. The placebo effect is much used by GPs to nurse ailing patients back to health."

“However, when it comes to measuring related factors such as the Power of Intent to change a physical state, the process is far less well accepted.With the use of Intent in Dowsing, the outcome is pure hostility. A research programme to address this reaction is underway, primarily led by the Dowsing Research Group -DRG of the British Society of Dowsers. This objective is to develop a practical technique to measure the mental energy involved in carrying out an action of Intent or Meditation. Over the last year or so, the DRG has been closely studying this phenomenon and has established that the act of meditation together with an intent can affect the energy stored within an electrical capacitor. These apparently humble devices are circuit components found in virtually all electronic goods and electronic instruments/ They simply store electric charge. It was found that if one holds a capacitor and imagines that, mentally, one is injecting ambient energy into it, then it is possible by Dowsing the resulting stored energy to measure just how much is involved. This is currently achieved by connecting the capacitor to a variable voltage source and, for each voltage value, measure its corresponding aura radius. Previous experimental and theoretical research has shown that this measurement is directly proportional to the energy density stored in the capacitor. Since the energy imparted to the capacitor is related to the applied voltage and capacitor value by a well known formula, one can define a voltage/aura calibration curve. This is much like a thermometer where the rise of mercury on a scale defines the temperature being measured."

“The Crop Circle Day in Wiltshire provided a perfect opportunity to try out the meditation experiment on a significant number of aficionados who, although knowledgeable about Subtle Energies and using the mind to control them, did not have specific awareness of the underlying rational behind the testing. It was not a formal test situation but simply an opportunity to involve motivated people to see if the effect was generally detectable among non specially trained subjects. The results were a resounding success with everyone being able to impart thought energy into the capacitor. It is worth adding that Billy Gawn, being the specialist in the group, `collected` three doses of ambient energy he saw floating around and hence managed to achieve an aura around three times larger than any other punter!"

“Since then, research continues on a quantitative basis. Under control conditions at a DRG meeting, with around half a dozen meditators imparting energy for some 3 minutes, the stored energy rose by around 0.5 joules. The current work is aimed at obtaining direct measurements on an oscilloscope through dowsing. Progress is being made but there remains a long way to go.”

It is worth pointing out that Billy Gawn is a unique dowser using his eyes only as tools. He has no need of rods or pendulums. To watch him work is intriguing. He moves his head around as though `sensing` a smell and his eyes have a far distant look. He has been able to see `energies` since he can first remember. He can describe them in detail, the colour, size, height, depth, shape etc. It was a most fascinating experiment in which Jim asked us not to use our own energies (as we would be drained) but to draw in external energies. When it came to my turn I wondered where on earth I would find any external energies and then suddenly there was a `click` in my head and to my surprise and relief I could feel a new and independent energy flowing in. I duly projected this energy out to Jim who the moment it reached him and his dowsing rods said `Whoa` and started to go backwards until the energy had reached its full extent! One note of caution. Before you start this experiment, it is important to protect yourself so that you only draw in natural or beneficial energy/ies.

"READINGS"The EPC works on the basis that a strong Voltage is used for a very short period of time to stimulate the release of photons via an electro-magnetic impulse.The camera in the EPC then captures an analog image of the photons emitted from the finger tips and translates this into digital information or EPC Gram.This includes complex mathematics via algorithms that calculate various parameters enabling an overall view of a person's current life state according to their energy readings.The different programmes allow for specific parameters to be calculated so that an overall perspective of one's health condition can be evaluated.

"CALCULATIONS"The EPC Diagrams represent the sum total of the calculations made from the readings of each individual finger and take the form of a Pie Chart (circular).The blue/green zone indicates the acceptable energy level values where each line that is crossed represents the value itself.These cross points are like dots that are connected to form the overall pattern that we see.The ideal form is a harmonised circle around the zero line in the chart with the circle indicating perfect energetic balance. Any anomalies from this harmonised shape indicate an excess or hyperactive reading above the zero and a deficit or hypoactive reading below the zero.All evaluations are relative to the overall values and positions of each reading. Therefore, some values may seem worse than they are compared to the ideal reading at the zero point. WOF means Without Filter and indicates a reading of the effect of the Psycho-emotional level or state on the physical body. This is shown as a red circle before an event and a green circle after an event.WF means With Filter and indicates a reading of the current energetic values related to the corresponding body parts of the Physical Body. This is shown as a blue circle before an event and a brown circle after an event. These are normally displayed as a series of circles on a single diagram to indicate the overall final reading of the effects before and after an event on the physical and psycho-emotional bodies. In this case they refer to the readings taken before and after entering the crop circle.

The Chakra diagram is a virtual (non-physical) reading and it indicates the overall strength and alignment of each of the chakras relative to each other and to the overall energy balance of the individual. For this reason, only the without filter readings are taken as they measure the psycho-emotional body.The size of the Chakra indicates strength and the position indicates the alignment of each Chakra relative to normalised energetic values taken form the overall energy calculations. There is a chart to the right of the Chakra Diagram that indicates these normalised values as well as the Psycho-emotional relative to the Physical body disbalance.The ideal energetic reading would show all of the Chakras of both the Physical and Psycho-emotional bodies in perfect alignment with the mark of the central axis through the image of the body.The final page shows two sets of chakras in solid colours and shaded circles indicating the readings before and after an event respectively. In this case they refer to the readings taken before and after entering the crop circle. Relative to the explanations offered above, it would be safe to conclude the following:

That the effects of entering into the crop circle on the subjects concerned had an increase in the Report on Readings for Participants in the July 2008 Crop Circles ExperimentsAll of the following information relates to the criteria and parameters involved for readings taken by the GDV/EPC developed by Dr Konstantin Korotkov of St. Petersburg University, Russia. All measurements, diagnosis and reports presented by Konstantin Pavlidis BEd Sc.

The terms WF- With Filter, WOF- Without Filter, are used throughout the report and refer to readings taken related to the physical body (WF) and the psycho-emotional body (WOF). Right and Left Side Pie Charts relate to Left and Right brain respectively. The blue/ red and green/brown circular lines in the pie chart refer to readings for before and during physical presence of the subjects in the crop circle for each subject.The central blue/green zone at the centre of the pie chart refers to optimum energy readings while the pink and yellow zones refer to below and above average energy levels.

Anne: where the blue/green ring at 0 value represents ideal balance.Right side showed more disparity between WF & WOF especially in the area related to jaw, teeth, throat, larynx, trachea and then liver, right kidney and duodenum.All of the above parameters improved dramatically where the drastic peaks forprevious readings had evened out for both WF & WOF on both right and left sides.

Billy: WF left side shows dramatic inversion peaks at the centre of the pie chart for three sections of the chart from the cerebral zone vessels to the epiphysis, the nervous system to the sacrum, the thoracic zone to the throat/larynx region. The WOF reading had less dramatic peaks where all readings for both were in the below average region.There are similar peak inversions for the right side with the most complex intense peaks being between digestion and right kidney regions.

Hazel: All parameters were in the pink below average zone, though the peaks were far less dramatic than for other subjects for both WF/WOF and left and right sides with the lowest points being at the transverse colon, cervical zone and the immune system on the right side. There was a great improvement of all parameters for bothWF/WOF on the right and left sides after being in the crop circle.

Jackie: WF left side shows the lowest inverted peak between throat and cerebral areas and highest energy at the right part of the heart. WF right side had the lowest peak at the sacrum/thoracic area with highest at the jaw. There is a large anomaly with WOF on the right side between the jaw, teeth and throat/larynx regions.All parameters even out far more after exposure to the crop circle.

Lucy: Most parameters are below average for both WF/WOF with the most marked peaks being WF on the left side at the respiratory system and right side of heart for both the right and left side readings; then the WOF, throat/larynx and duodenum, WF/WOF on the right side.Parameters even out quite well in the crop circle with excess energy indicated in the cerebral vessels to hypothalamus, WF/WOF left side, and above average for the respiratory system cerebral zone for WF/WOF on the right side.

Roger: Uneven inverted peaks for WF/WOF both right and left sides the most prominent the WF right side between the sacrum, lumbar/thoracis region.All parameters improved markedly around with above average readings for WOF in the liver, uro-genital system on both the right and left sides.

Overall energy field and augmentation of energy values from the EPC diagrams by at least 200% in comparison to the readings taken before entering the circle 30mins prior.“All readings and calculations conducted by Konstantin Pavlidis- Biophysicist, ASC researcher 13/07/08”

These events showed an overall an unexpected and impressive improvement.

Roger Taylor’s reading

Jackie Faulkner’s readings.

Perhaps one of the most impressive results in every case (as shown below) was the increased integral areas whilst inside the circle as compared to the control tests at the Avebury study room.

In my case Konstantin Pavlidis’s readings are uncannily accurate.

Hazel Norton reported on her findings using the Asyra technique:

The colours: As a general rule, for all the tests, the colour-coding in the tests is as follows:

Red

Stressed, Acute or Inflamed

Yellow

Chronic, Weakened or Depleted

Green

Balanced

The Asyra machine. In the 1950's Dr R Voll discovered that acupuncture points, traditionally used for treatment, could also be used to measure an individual's state of health. Through many thousands of screenings he found that particular points were associated with particular organ imbalances and health conditions. These principals were key in the development of the BEST Screening system, which was a highly developed version of Dr Voll's original instrument monitored the body's energetic response to various substances and tests through a process called biofeedback. We all respond to our environments in various ways. If you see, taste or hear something you really like you will think good thoughts and your body will physically respond by relaxing, producing saliva etc. If however you experience something undesirable you will respond very differently; tension, shallow breathing, thoughts of how to avoid it etc. Biofeedback is the process of monitoring how your body responds to various stimuli. With Electro Dermal Screening (EDS) systems this is done by monitoring electrical changes in acupuncture points while tests are performed. The technology works by measuring the amount of current that passes through the cellular structure of an organ, gland or body system, which reveals the functional status of the tissue. Because the assessment is based on defined parameters of health any deviation from the standard is easily detected. This provides an accurate picture of how the body is functioning. Once the body’s problem areas have been identified,

The Asyra System is the next generation of bio-energetic health screening. New technology has eliminated the need to test at each individual acupuncture point, making screenings faster than ever and eliminating variables that may arise from the administration of the screenings.

Since the 1950’s many studies, tests and research papers have been produced, verifying the effectiveness of the process. There are many papers on the physics and bio-electrical principles behind EDS.

In a recent study, Drawing from a clinical pool of 1,800 patients, E. Alan Jeppsen, M.D., and Steven G. Osguthorpe, N.D., conducted a double-blind study of over 600 randomly assigned patients, of which 100 were used as control subjects. This study, “Effectiveness of the Asyra in Assessing Sub-Physiologic Thyroid Levels in Women 35 to 65 Years of Age,” yielded a 97 percent correlation with blood chemistry. This paper can be read at www.asyra.com. The Asyra system is also registered with the FDA in America

Crop Circle Day 13th July 2008“I ran five different tests.1. Baseline test – This test measures energy states in major organs and systems. This can give an indication of which organs are out of balance and could indicate health problems.2. Comprehensive test – Thousands of test items in the computer’s database are tested to show whether one has been affected by viruses, bacteria, parasites, etc.3. Hormonal imbalance – 31 hormonal signatures are tested for imbalances.4.Chakra Imbalances – The 7 chakras are tested.5.Geopathic stress and Harmful Energies - Here we look at Earth fields, electromagnetic stress, mineral deposits, power lines, microwave energies, radioactive exposure, ultraviolet waves and X rays."

"The first tests were done at the Avebury study centre between 10.00am and midday. We had 11 subjects (including myself) – 6 men and 5 women. The same tests were then done in the crop circle between 2.00pm and 3.00pm.I was then able to compare the results at home to see if there were any significant changes in the 2 sets of results. As well as comparing the 2 sets of tests I also compared the results of 11 random people.“Most of the results showed nothing unusual. For example if looking at the hormonal profile for 11 test subjects there could be anything from 1 to 11 or 12 hormones showing as out of balance for each person and for each particular hormone you would typically see 2 or maybe 3 or 4 with the same hormone out of balance. This is true for every test so if any particular hormone, chakra, organ, virus etc showed up in 5 or more instances I would count this as a significant result."

"So when looking at the hormonal profile of our 11 test subjects and the 11 random subjects there was nothing at all that was significant.However in the baseline report the Pineal gland resonance showed up with energy imbalance in 6 out of the 11 subjects when in the crop circle. This is particularly exciting as the pineal gland is known to some as the site of the Third Eye and of all the organ resonances that were being tested this was the one that I felt could be significant. Another interesting factor arose when I noted which of us did NOT show up any changes in the pineal gland. They were myself, Lucy, Konstantin, Billy and Molly. Each of us were very busy when in the circle with particular jobs. We were all very busy and preoccupied with getting various tasks done so it is possible that we were not ‘open’ to experiencing the effects of the circle at that time.To my delight there were 2 other significant results." "At the test centre 6 showed up as being affected by electromagnetic stress. This fits in with the tests that I do daily at the NutriVital clinic where I have more and more patients showing up with electromagnetic stress. Far more than I saw even a year ago. To my amazement in the circle this changed to none of the women being affected by it and only 4 of the men. Out of any random groups of 6 men and 5 women I would absolutely expect to see a mixture of men and women being affected by it. I’m not sure why the women should have been protected by it inside the circle but this will certainly direct some of the research for next year."“The last significant result came from the Chakra test. At the Avebury centre the results gave quite a typical picture of between 1 and 3 chakras being out of balance for each individual and also between 1 and 3 for each chakra as a whole. So from the group of 11 there was 1 who had an imbalance in the first chakra, 3 for the 2nd, 2 for the 3rd, 1 for the 4th, 2 for the 5th, 3 for the 6th and 3 for the 7th. This was a typical set of results when I compared them to 11 other random results."“To my surprise the readings in the circle were as follows: - 6 for the 1st chakra, 1 for the 2nd, 1 for the 3rd, none for the 4th, none for the 5th, 2 for the 6th and 6 for the 7th. To have results of 6 for both the first and seventh charkas was very significant."“What all of these results actually means is very difficult to determine at the moment but it shows that we are affected by the energies in a circle, even one which was 2 weeks old. Each year I believe that we can refine the tests even further and hopefully uncover even more interesting results. The Asyra is about to change again and next year we will be able to show numerically to what degree energies have altered between the tests.”

It would appear that both the crown and base chakras were the most affected. I find this intriguing, as they would seem to be creating a balance; essential for harmony. The crown chakra is located on the crown or top of the head. It is said to be the seat of enlightenment, love and thought or our universal connection to the divine. At this time we are able share another person’s experience as though we were actually inside them. A sense of empathy or unity. The base chakra represents the Earth. It shows stability and solidity. Whereas the Crown chakra is pulling us upwards towards the divine, the base chakra is doing the reverse, keeping us connected to our planet, the physical world and to our material existence. It is suggested that if we ignore this chakra and only seek the higher levels of consciousness, that `we would be growing without roots`. We might become unstable and unable to cope with the tests we encounter during our earthy existence.

It is of interest that one of the weaknesses that showed up in Anne Leonard’s Asyra tests was her teeth and shortly after she underwent major dental treatment. The Asyra technique picks up weaknesses or changes within our bodies. These can be found at such an early stage that we are often unaware that they exist. Professor William Tiller (Dept of Material Science and engineering) at Stanford University and other scientists have examined this system and considered this a valuable technique in terms of diagnostic medicine. “I was impressed that Hazel identified some problem with a tooth – and indeed I was just about to have some treatment ([it cost a horrifying, ghastly, £2,500!!!).

I am most grateful to everyone who kindly completed my questionnaires and sent to me. As always many of the results were consistent with those of previous years.However the following report sent by Alistair McHugh is unique to the best of my knowledge. “sorry if I am wasting your time but I wanted to make you aware of a strange anomaly that occurred in the circle you documented at cropcircles.lucypringle.co.uk/photos/2008/uk2008am.shtml. I entered the circle with a camera with totally flat batteries - I had taken many pictures earlier that day and had totally run them down. On entering the circle I thought I would try and get one picture out of it, so I turned the camera on - I was surprised to find the batteries were fully charged. I took many photos in the circle and the batteries were charged for the remainder of the day, I took loads of photos. This can be substantiated by a companion who was accompanying me that day (a medical professional who was sceptical of circles until observing this incident).

“The camera was a Panasonic FZ2 (12x optical zoom Leica lens), the battery was a Panasonic 7.2v 680mAh Li-on model number CGA-S002A.The weather that day was fine and the temperature consistent. I can think of no reason why the battery would have recharged. I have researched batteries since I visited the circle and have found that lead-acid batteries (such as car batteries) can have a bounce back effect, that is to say they can recover to some extent after being drained, but lithium ion batteries no not react in this way. It is possible that I might get a couple of pictures after a battery is “flat” but I managed to take hundreds which is very unusual to say the least.” This is an unusual report as many are the times I have had had reports of batteries and other electrical devices failing whilst inside a circle but never one of batteriesrecharging! However Chartered Electrical engineer Rodney Hale suggests, “Since battery effects appear quite common, it seems to me that chemical actions must be involved. “ Researcher and photographer Nick Nicholson was not so fortunate when attempting to take pole shot pictures of the diamond/square shaped formation at All Cannings that appeared on the 30 June. “Taking pole shots proved a repetitive exercise as first the camera battery failed and then the remote release battery started to show signs of drainage and the camera shutter was operating whilst it was laid on the ground and certain shots were out of focus on an auto focus camera!! At last the pole shooting was over, a strange experience indeed.”

Another report from the All Cannings event is as follows: “I had been having problems with very painful and swollen feet for about 10 days and had difficulty getting to the formation, even though it was a relatively short distance from my car. When I was inside the formation, I felt no pain at all and could walk without difficulty. Once I was a few yards down the tramline again the discomfort returned.” Was it due to the uneven ground? But when she visited the East field formation on the 12 July “with some difficulty walking and with additional pain in one shoulder, once inside the formation, both feet and shoulder became pain free and discomfort then returned soon after leaving the formation. Obviously shoulder pain not related to the soft surface, so it seems that it was being in the formation that gave relief. I have visited other formations this year, but no others have affected pain levels.” This report is similar to many others I have received over the years from people suffering from arthritis who have had total pain relief and reduction of swelling whilst inside the formation only for the pain to return (sometimes worse than before) when having left the circle. It seems that the residual `energy` within the formation has an ability to reduce inflammation on a temporary basis. Why should this be? The implications of this are surely of great importance and this is why I am so passionate about my research. How I wish funding were available to investigate these effects and others.

I took a group of people round the circles on the 22 July. I am always careful not to give an opinion before entering a formation as part of my research is to observe how individuals respond. Our first visit was to the West Woods `Four Elements`. I had visited it previously with Louise Olivi’s group. She had suggested we conduct a mediation so before starting I recommended that everyone should find `their` spot by either using their `gut feelings`, by dowsing or if unable to dowse by asking me to dowse for them. By the time we were ready I was amazed to see that we were seated in a perfectly spaced circle. Next we visited the Lockeridge formation and I was surprised that no one wanted to sit down all everyone seems happy to leave after a short time. We all have a natural ability to sense ambient energies or the lack of them. A Frenchman who came with me to the West Woods formation on a day when it rained continuously lay on the ground trying to get as close to the energy of the formation as possible and seeming quite oblivious to the conditions. After many minutes I had to urge him to leave. This Example illustrated the consistently beneficial effect of the formation. An exceptional event! During the morning of the 22 July, I received a message that a new formation Priors later known as `The Swallows`, had appeared that morning in South Field at Alton. This was to turn out to be a formation that `grew` within 24 hours. After a quick lunch we hastened there to find the hill teeming with people and with people from all over the world piling out of tour busses, thereby eliminating all hope of any critical physical examination. The huge number of overseas tours this season has unfortunately made this important area of research well nigh impossible. Whilst in the formation an overseas visitor walked down the hill towards me carrying aloft a huge handful of wheat as though it were a trophy. When I remonstrated with her, she couldn’t understand why she shouldn’t do exactly as she pleased. I ended up by getting seriously annoyed by her arrogance. Whenever we go into a formation, we are on the farmer’s land and the crop in that field is part of his livelihood. We are only there through his good grace and kindness. However overseas visitors are not the only culprits; many is the time I have seen my own countrymen walk straight across a field to reach a circle, without first working out which tramline would bring them directly into the formation.

The formation straddled the slope of the hill. When at the top of the formation it was impossible to see the lower part and it was estimated that there was a difference of some 6 feet, thereby rendering it out of the question for anyone being able to see either the bottom or top part simultaneously if constructing it by hand. It measured some 750 feet in length. On entering the formation I found myself talking to local researcher Andy Potter who kindly sent me this report:

“On Monday 21st July 2008 I had gone to bed at around 10.30 pm. I was woken up at around 11.30 by the sound of jet fighters flying over the house. I got up at 11.45, made a cup of tea and went into the garden to see what was going on. I thought to myself that this activity was most unusual for that time of night. I watched two jet fighters fly past where I live in Hilcot in the direction of Woodborough Hill. They flew over the hill and on towards a region somewhere between Marlborough and Pewsey, at which point they seemed to loop a figure of eight and circle the entire Vale. I was also aware of the presence of a high altitude aircraft which I thought could be a reconnaissance plane. I watched this activity for about an hour. In addition to the fighters, a military helicopter came in from the south west and circled the area around Woodborough Hill. I had the impression the aircraft were looking for something."

“The activity seemed to abate for a while. I stood and gazed at Woodborough Hill, feeling quite tranquil and relaxed. I felt I could see a faint translucent, orange glow in the air over the area to the left of the hill. I’m not certain about this as I know the eyes can play tricks. What I saw next was quite extraordinary. A perfect ring of cloud formed high in the sky to the left of the hill. Concentric ripples then formed going outwards from this ring like a pond ripple effect. I watched this for about fifteen minutes until it dissipated. All the while, I had the gut feeling that something was happening over in that area. The next morning I told a friend who was staying with me about it. I told him I wouldn’t be surprised if a crop formation had occurred there."

“I spotted the Southfield formation on my way back to Hilcott from West Overton in the afternoon of 22nd July. I met you Lucy, at the entrance to the field. On entering the formation I felt a strong, warm inner glow, accompanied by high frequency sounds around my head. I felt a little weakness in my legs, which has happened before in crop circles. I felt drawn to talk to people and found the unusually high level of openness that I have often experienced with people in crop circles in the past. To me, this is a real contrast to normal everyday life wherein people don’t really communicate; they are so busy just living their roles day to day in a rather isolated existence. The crop formations seem to bring everything out of people that would not normally be discussed in every day life."

“When I said goodbye to you at the entrance to the field I returned to the formation and chatted with people for about 3 hours which felt like half an hour. Time seemed to flash by."

"For the record:

I do not have any longstanding health problems apart from being deaf in my right ear.

I do not drink alcohol or take any drugs, prescribed or otherwise.

I do have two gold crowns and several amalgam fillings. This is an interesting question because I have experienced toothache over the two weeks following Southfield. It wasn’t just one tooth that ached, it was my whole mouth. I just put this down to not being to see a dentist for too long!

In the two weeks following my visit to the formation, I seemed to be buzzing with energy and vitality. I also noticed that I was eating hardly any food, but drinking lots of water. I felt the strong impulse to give up coffee, which I have now done. This high energy is still continuing. (13thAugust08) "

“On leaving the Southfield formation, I developed a sickly headache. Later in the afternoon I drank lots of water and decided to pack my rucksack with the intention of sleeping in the formation that night. I still had the headache at around 7.30pm and felt exhausted, so I decided to rest for an hour or so. The next thing I was aware of was waking up the next morning at 8.30am! When I discovered that the Southfield formation had grown I initially felt disappointed that I had fallen asleep and not made it out there. I then smiled to myself thinking it is as if I was prevented from being there. It is unheard of for me to go to sleep at that early hour; I rarely go to bed before 11pm as I work late on the computer.”

This feeling of `Oneness` shows activity in the crown chakra. This can also be shown as a spike in the Brain Stem of between 18-18.5 Hz. The brain stem is located on the top of the spinal cord. It deals with important functions that keep us alive. It automatically controls our breathing, heartbeat, blood pressure, and circulation.

Andy was not the only person to hear aircraft activity that night. Steve Amor who lives close by reported:

“I left home at 4.30am Tuesday 22nd July travelling up over Alton hill, stopping and surveying the crop fields as far as I could see, yes it was very twilighty,a clear sky the fields are turning more yellow now and will show up any flattened corn. Looking straight down to Southfield no marks were visible, and at 2pm travelling from Alton to Pewsey there were a lot of people and parked vehicles, so I knew there was something up in Southfield, on returning home at 5.15pm, I drove straight up Alton hill to see were this formation was in the field, and sure enough it could be seen, and then I knew that this circle appeared in daylight hour. We only heard fighter jets on Monday and Tuesday night both at the same time 11pm, for 10 minutes. And Wednesday morning coming back home at 7.40am I stopped coming down the hill, because I noticed the formation was a lot larger going into 5 or 6 tram lines, and what a spectacular design it is!”

When visiting the formation Olav Bjorshol experienced such a strong feeling of joy particularly in the centre that was comparable to his experience when swimming with dolphins. Harriet Crosby despite only having arrived from the States a few hours previously found herself amazingly invigorated without any sense of her usual tiredness after such a long flight. During most of her time in the circle she “Experienced tingling sensations in my legs. I sat and meditated in the green centre on the apex and felt a tremendous sense of well being and an elongation of the spine. Breathing out, I descended down a pole towards the centre of the earth, inhaling as I went up the pole into an infinite universe. Because I had tight muscles in my neck from the airplane flight, I lay down and positioned my neck right over the centre apex, a fulcrum of energy, and relaxed and felt the muscle spasm melt into relaxation. It was just a wonderful experience.”

As so often happens different people experience different effects according to their personal metabolisms. Indeed Geraldine Leale like Andy Potter felt an initial an immediate `intense energy` lasting 15 minutes. She sensed the formation was `emotionally charged` and `felt an intense sense of love-impersonal which lasted about an hour`. Her mobile telephone went dead, recovering later but only showing zeros for a while! After about 2 hours she experienced extreme fatigue, headache and `space/time disorientation.` she had no sense of speed whilst driving home. The following day `couldn’t move. Slept over 9 hours- slept during the day. Exhausted, as if run over! '

She had previously visited the 2003 Milk Hill formationand experienced unpleasant symptoms. "After `illness` from 2003 Milk Hill formation, I went for an acupuncture session and was told that all my polarities had switched and my whole body system was over loaded and knocked out. Returned to normal after treatment" Why should there be such a variation in people’s experiences? My belief is that we are all complex people with energies that increase and decrease at different times of the day. We are physical, mental, emotional, electrical beings; none of us exactly like the other, thereby experiencing responses to certain situations in our own particular and unique way. Some of us are more right brained, others more left brained; all these different elements will have a bearing on our behavioural nature and reactions. So what is happening? We are dealing with `energies` and frequencies. Many is the time that people have been affected when I was giving a talk. Several people have had unexpected healing results whilst others find that they are unable to look at certain formations, finding them physically unpleasant. As electrical beings we respond/react to these frequencies. An enclosed space is made sacred by the fundamental principles of number, proportion, geometry, music and ratios contained within it. Just as music is linked to number so the geometry in the crop circles generates musical frequencies that affect us in diverse ways even at a distance. I received an email from someone who has been interested in crop circles for 8 years without any previous ill effects. However, when she viewed the Waden Hill formation, the first event of 2008 on the Crop Circle Connector web site, “I looked at all the photos and studied the diagram that was presented on the site in animated form. It A few minutes later, I was sitting at my computer when I suddenly felt a bit dizzy. I got up from the chair and felt so woozy that I needed to lie down. My 7 year old was quite concerned. I wanted a nap, but couldn’t bear to shut out my child. Suddenly my stomach felt queasy as well. I was really frightened because I was so afraid something was seriously wrong with me, as I have never felt dizziness like that in my life, expect for on an amusement ride! After a few runs to the bathroom, it suddenly occurred to me that perhaps it was brought on by the crop circle diagram/image. It’s been 6 hours since it happened and I still feel a tad dizzy, but not too much.” I suggested she should try and look at the images again without feeling that something would happen to her. She replied saying “I would certainly try to do what you suggest and look at the images again, but I'm actually afraid to do so! It was such an awful feeling! To be honest with you, I almost feel as though I can't bear to look at any images of crop formations without feeling extremely uneasy. It's like when you have had a nightmare and can't bear to see the images resurface in your mind. It's almost like that. Where before I could stare at the circles all day and get nothing but good feeling from them. Perhaps that particular formation that possibly brought on the ill feelings (The April 19th/ 2008, Waden Hill formation) was a negatively formed/charged one? It almost brings on a panic-y feeling when I even just go to the website with the prospect of checking it out again. I can't bear to do it! Bizarre, I tell you. If, and when I do study it again, I'll be sure to let you know what transpired, if I don't fall flat on the floor!"Later I received this encouraging email “ I have good news...I finally got the nerve to check out the pictures and diagram of the April 19th/ circle for the second time, taking your advice to do so, while thinking to myself that it won't affect me in any way. This was about 10 minutes ago, and whereas the last dizzying effects came upon almost immediately after studying the photos and diagram when I looked at it for the first time on May 4th. So far nothing feels out of the ordinary. And this time I spent more time on the site, and really concentrated on the photos and diagram. (How strange that the second circle of the UK happened around the same time I was checking out the very first one for the very first time? In fact the second one didn't appear on the website until the next day after my episode. What if it was being formed at the exact time I was feeling woozy and checking out the Waden Hill one?!”

How can people be affected by viewing crop circles on a screen you may ask? Often crop circles are shaped like mandalas. Mandalas are the schematic representations of the cosmos in Buddhist, American Indian and other traditions. Seen as universal symbols, they are used as a means of inducing meditative or trance like states. Just as a musical chord can activate resonances in the ear and the brain which kindle emotions so do mandalas affect people visually. It is known as a Sign Stimulus and it trigger a behavioural response without requiring knowledge or understanding on the part of the person.

I am always pleased to receive reports from previous years. They are all part of the important data that I have collected over the past 20 years. Clearly to have remained so clear in the sender’s minds indicates a lasting impression. One of these was sent to me in relation to two formations. The first happened in the 2001 Windmill formation. "When I left the circle my eyes were extremely sensitive to light - and everything looked enhanced dimensionally. I saw large lines of energy rising from the ground, moving upward, filling the landscape, the horizon and the sky for hours. The lines were wavy, pulsating, in constant movement. They just kept emanating from the ground. I kept closing my eyes to try to make it stop - It was like looking at a movie - It was overwhelming - Lots of movement - When it got dark that evening, I could see as well as if it was dusk all night. That was one of the things that compelled me to stay outside. Like I said before, I do see energy but I have not seen anything of that magnitude again. It was like being in a vision, aware of 2 realities. Things didn't look they had before. I had fear around this - wondering how long this would last and not really knowing what was happening to me - I felt like I couldn't handle it -When I was able to be briefly still in what I was seeing and observe it - I had an overwhelming feeling of vastness, wonder and love - like things I had known deep within about other states of consciousness and dimensions were real.” It has been suggested to me that these visual effects are indicative of photophobia and is a Migraine Variant symptom. 'Fear' and 'overwhelming sense of vastness, may well relate to spike of Beta waves, 18 and 18.5 Hz in the brain (discussed above).Levels of 15 - 40 Hz induces intense anxiety and panic.

To continue: "I had a visual opening earlier that year that was similar only because of the size of the energies I saw. The first time I saw huge segmented energies also horizontal to the earth moving, floating and rising. I was overwhelmed by an enormous feeling of love that made me weep through the entire experience. It also lasted hours. Every since then I am able to perceive these energies and others. I now call them spiritual DNA. They are much smaller now, circle me, move to my heartbeat. They are segmented strands, strings, horizontal or vertical, constantly pulsating and moving. They can tie together with other strands when I am with someone or think of someone - are connected many times in the enter by a glowing circle - I feel this happens as an expression of love - I can see them light up on other people -I may sound crazy - but I feel like there is a code in this - I have been looking at this everyday now for about 8 years - trying to observe changes and the strands behaviour and movement."

The second event occurred in the 2001 August 10 the Alton Barnes formation: "The circle I felt an energy entering was Alton Barnes on August 10th, 2001 - I was walking up the tram line with a friend -she was in front of me - and she walked right into the circle with everyone else - As I stepped into the circle an energy grabbed me and held me there - It was as if I was frozen in place - I was stunned by this - I had to push with all my strength to get through the energy - Like pushing through a brick wall - (This sort of energy happened to me once before when I was a teenager) I felt like I was in slow motion - It was only maybe one or two steps but it took all my effort to push through it - and then it just lifted and I moved right inside - I proceeded to have an amazing experience in the circle. There was a joyous feeling all day in the circle. There was a picture taken that day of myself and the group of women I was with. In the photo there is an orb over my head. I also saw balls of light travelling in and outside the circle. That was the final day of my trip to Wiltshire."

What energies are present in certain places that can trigger off such brain responses at particular frequencies? Indeed science can teach us much about ourselves, our behaviour, and the natural world in which we

Hard on the heels of a mild winter, spring appeared heralded by possibly our earliest ever crop circle. On the 15 April a glorious ring containing seven arcs of ascending size, appeared on the plateau at Oliver's Castle, nr Devises, Wiltshire in oil seed rape (canola). The glorious yellow emphasized the size and magnificence of the formation which although reported on the 15 April could have been there a couple of days previously. Not only might it have been the earliest event but also certainly the largest and most complicated ever to appear in this particular crop. Reports on the ground lay from people examining the stalks were favourable.

May was a wonderfully sunny and warm month as indeed was the start of June but subsequently the weather deteriorated rapidly into a wet and dismal summer. Were there fewer formations than usual as a result of these poor conditions? No quite the reverse; unexpectedly we had more circles then the previous year.

Winterbourne Monkton (uk2007af)

East Meon (uk1995ck)

One of my favourites was the circle at Winterbourne Monkton (24 May 2007) containing nested crescents that was surely a close and long lost relation of the wonderful East Meon formation of July 1995. Its visual harmonious quality was a joy to behold.

On the first June one of the most important formations of the year appeared in barley at Yatesbury, Nr Avebury Trusloe in Wiltshire.(see left) A five-fold spiral spanning almost 300 feet in diameter, it contained 57 tiny circles. Charlie Balloch, a professional musician from Arizona, likened the formation to a Pythagorean Spiral. Named after the ancient Greek mathematician Pythagoras, the Pythagorean Comma or Diatonic Comma was known to the Chinese some 200 years BC. and possibly even earlier to the Babylonians. It demonstrates the harmonious relationship between number and music.

On receiving Charlie's email I got in touch with Jim Lyons from York University who replied saying

As soon as I looked at the Yatesbury photos and saw the `missing` circles, instantaneously I knew it was a Standing Wave Fractal - just what I have been working on for the last two years!

The Pythagorean Comma is the fractal part of the nesting of harmonics. Basically in Earth Energies (Crop Circles) the numbers 9 & 8 occur. 9/8 -1.125 is approximately a major tone on the diatonic scale which dowsers have known for decades describes earth energy patterns. There are equivalently six tones in a major scale 5 tones + 2 semitones =6 tones. (9/8)^6 is 2.0273 which since a scale doubles the frequency gives the ratio 1.0136, the round off being the Pythagorean comma. This is the basis of the fractal nature of all scales. In particular, I am applying Global Scaling Theory www.globalscaling.com to not only Crop Circles but also the whole process of Consciousness, particularly its non local properties. The theory is based on standing waves in logarithmic space. This may sound highly technical but it is simply the piano keyboard! The Universe is a glorious keyboard with strings between every atom of matter (holographic) and by implication all mankind!

On the same day in an adjacent field appeared one of the smallest and simplest formations of the year. A plain circle containing the most amazingly complicated ground lay. I buried my bottles and later retrieved them and sent them to Jim Lyons for full trace mineral testing. The results were as follows. The most important changes show an ascending scale of nitrate level starting from the first control 437 and 438 to the bottle 440 buried in the centre of the formation.

These results were intriguing but became even more tantalising on reading that the original nitrate content on the bottle of Volvic water. 6.3 mg/l and yet the highest nitrate presence that was found in the bottle buried in the centre was only 2.570 mg/l.

Jim Lyons's comments: `Having now been through the various measured parameters, besides the nitrate results, there are two other potentially interesting results to note. Firstly, the water pH is distinctly lower for sample 437 - this is only slightly alkaline at 7.4. The remaining values are all around 8.3 which is quite common. Again sample 437 has a noticeable higher( 15%) electrical conductivity @ 0.230 mmhos/cm than the others. Recall we have noticed this before. In addition 437 had a slightly greater dowsable aura then the others, around 10%. However, none were very large, being fractionally over normal say for an immature crop.

As for the nitrate results, these were quite unexpected and indeed do show a steady increase through the sample numbers. The percentage changes are -

437 - 438 17.5% 437 - 439 20.7% 437 - 440 71.3%

We have to ponder the mechanism here as to how this can happen, since no known material inflow of nitrate can occur through the glass. I can only suggest at this point in time it is akin to the results we achieved with electrical effects some time ago involving combining Oxygen and Nitrogen in some form of discharge. This topic certainly deserves some more investigation.

I have plotted the results in a bar chart -

However possibly the most tantalising event of the summer was yet to come. It occurred on the night of 070707.

As there has been much controversy over the East Field Fractal Necklace formation that appeared during that night, I will now endeavour to pull together all the strands of this intriguing tapestry. East Field, Alton Barnes, Nr Marlborough is an enormous field covering approx 100 acres of hugely undulating uneven ground.

On the night of the 6/7th July a man parked his car in the silage pit at the bottom of East Field. Charles Mallett of the Silent Circle Café interviewed him and this is what he told Charles. At approximately 10.30-10.45 pm that evening a dark blue jeep containing several people pulled into the silage pit. It was there for 7-8 minutes with its lights shining into his car. In return he flashed his lights at the jeep. Someone wearing a military type jacket with a hood made of stiff rigid canvas like material got out of the jeep and came up to his car. He could not see the person's face due to the hood. He told Charles that he was sitting in the back of his car with the back window open so that he could see the stars and also the field. He was watching a DVD (with no audio attachments or headphones) that was placed in the small space between the two front seats. He asked the person from the jeep if he could help him but there was no response and the person turned around and walked back to the jeep and it drove off in the Pewsey direction. Five to ten minutes the jeep returned swinging round in a circle so that it faced the exit to the silage pit. Four people got out. One was wearing a light checked lumberjack shirt and the others three wore dark clothes. They left the silage pit walking on the road behind the hedge out of his vision. After a short time they returned and one by one they jumped down the bank over the thistles into East field. They were carrying no equipment. The man in the car was awake till about 2.30am when he dosed off until about 4.40am when he woke and saw part of the formation for the first time. He had heard no cars enter the silage pit during that time. He did not go into the formation initially as he was of the opinion that it had been made by the four people he had seen enter the field earlier; indeed it was not until later when he saw Charles Mallet and others coming out of the field about 7.30am that he went in himself for the first time and decided that there was no possible way that the four people could have made a formation of such a size and complexity in the short period of time that has elapsed.

Mathew Williams states that he and others made the formation. That they had not made any plans, that there were no undulations in the field and that the flash soon after 3am was due to one of his team of hoaxer's hair catching fire!

He also says that he and his team were still in the field making the formation at 4am and the reason they were not spotted by Win, Gary and Paula was because they were invisible due to the phenomenon's special properties.

The story continues with the principle player Win Keech, an engineer now working as a Computer Engineer, who also worked as a designer at Rolls Royce, and was a pilot in the Royal Air Force for a short time.

His great interest in UFO's is approached from a scientific and objective point of view.

In 1991 he witnessed a pale luminous disk above the crop in East Field and the subsequent appearance of a small circle. As the disk travelled slowly across the field it was the size of a small dinner plate before expanding to approx 20 feet in diameter. It then became stationary hovering over the crop; the corn beneath shook, rattled and fell naturally, taking only about 3 seconds. The disk then moved away across the field contracting as it did so. Keech went to where he had seen the luminous object and found a small circle of approx 20 ft in diameter.

On the evening of the 6th July 07, Keech still keenly interested in UFO's, arrived at the car park at Knapp Hill. He parked his car further along the track and set up camera equipment on the roof of and inside his car and then walked up to the peak of Knapp Hill overlooking East Field and also giving him a clear view of Lockeridge behind and Milk Hill to the west. He finished setting up these cameras by 11.08 and he reached the top of Knapp Hill by approx: 11.15-11.30. This was confirmed by his girl friend Ann Shield who received a text message from him saying that he was all ready, steady go.

His continually running equipment consisted of a CCTV camera with infrared; this was linked directly to a bank of VCR recording machines ran off a battery power supply.

He also had an extremely sensitive SONY VX 2100 camcorder. This was used as a spot scope and was mounted on a tripod for scanning the field. It was recording into a JVC gr-dv500 camcorder.

Picture taken at around 3.20am BST

Keech tells me that

The Sony vx2100 was at the time of 070707 the most light sensitive (professional) camcorder available ... it has a quoted light sensitivity of 1 lux, but in practice can be made to perform beyond that using manual settings of the slow shutter mode - enabling it to image slightly beyond eye sensitivity, in colour at broadcast resolution. It was used as a high zoom (12x) colour spot scope for the first half of the night, recording to its mini-dv tape. Due to the intense wind blown condensation (almost drizzle), the tape head moisture protection interlock activated preventing recording to its own internal tape when we first imaged the formation (around 3:20am bst) (see photo)... consequently I output the video from its imaging system directly to a JVC gr-dv500 (compact high bandwidth camcorder) via a firewire to firewire connection, using the JVC's mini-dv tape recording in place of the vx2100. Previously the gr-dv500 had been used to record directly from the cctv camera mounted on the back of the Seben Generation 1+ image intensifier with 3x lens which was used for general sweeps of the intensely dark area. The image intensifier has certain drawbacks - it has relatively bad resolution and the image suffers from some spherical aberration, which means that it is in sharp focus at its centre, but slightly out of focus away from the centre ... it is however roughly 1000 times more light sensitive than the human eye and works by accelerating a photon cascade within a video tube and projecting the image onto a green phosphor screen - and works when nothing else is sensitive enough. A YD66 (0.02 lux) cctv was mounted to view the image and the output went directly to the gr-dv500 via an AV composite video output. When not scanning the field the gr-dv500 was placed in the inside of my jacket to protect it from the condensation/drizzle. By experiment it was found that when recording to the gr-dv500 from the vx2100 the digital time code of the vx2100 was superseded by the gr-dv500's own time code. The gr-dv500 was affected by some energetic process that night which changed its time code by 9 mins from the previously synchronised GMT time. It is also of note that the internal photo memory stick of my Ericson photo phone was also scrambled that night, possibly by the same process.

In order to cover all eventualities he had a vast amount of other very sensitive equipment so that if one item had shortcomings other equipment present would cover it.

With his equipment he could see all that was happening, not only the lights of the cars but also he would have seen and recorded anyone entering the field using infra red lights of any kind. His VX2100 camera could have zoomed in and identified them. He could also hear any sound very clearly.

His dog had been behaving very strangely in that area that day which was another reason why he felt he should do a night watch.

On a still picture at 1.23am, he saw nothing in the field but he said it was such a very dark black night that it would have been hard to see anything at all. Keech kindly agreed to send the footage to Rodney Hale for analysis. I have known Hale for many years and apart from being an expert in his field he is also a man of integrity and impartiality. He is a Chartered Engineer and MIET (Member of the Institution of Engineering and Technology) and Fellow of the Royal Meteorological Society. By carefully overlaying the photos taken at 1.15am and then taking the average of them all, Hale found a shadow in the field that appeared to be part of the formation closest to Knapp Hill.

Combined picture taken at 01.15am BST

The four photographs were timed at 01.12, 01.13, 01.14 and 01.23. 'Since the combined photo is an average of these times, I have called it 01.15.'

It is striking to see how the upper part of the formation closest to Knapp Hill seems to be present in the field at that time. The below metrological image taken at 1.27 am on the 070707 shows Wiltshire under thick cloud. (see image, below)

Keech said that he would have to have another look at his findings, especially the video, for evidence of activity at that time, and perhaps come up with a re-appraisal of the sequence of events and how the flash might fit into things. However he still has a colossal amount of footage to examine so the findings may take some time to emerge.

He tells me that

With respect to Hale's analysis, I do agree that something appears present on the enhancement by Hale. What it is, neither of us are certain - my concern is with noise artefacts in the Sony's internal processing and that at such low light levels, the effect of shadow from cloud-streetlight scatter/reflection from Alton Barnes must be considered - I would not like to say what we are looking at in Hale's enhancement - I would like it to be a pre-cursor to the formation, but I cannot prove that so will not present that as fact. The photos Hale used were taken on Sony DSC-F717 semi professional still camera, with 5X f2 lens and 5 mpix resolution on a ccd chip larger than subsequent models. The photos were very long exposures (up to 10 secs) and this is where we must be very careful about noise. In the absence of light, the imaging sensors produce random noise signals called dark noise - this is a natural quantum effect of the transistors of the ccd sensor. What the long exposure noise reduction system of the Sony does is first take the photo (with the noise), then retakes the same exposure length with the shutter closed. It then subtracts the dark image noise values from the image - which is fine, except that the noise is truly random and so an exact time spaced cancellation cannot be achieved. The images that night were also saved in a jpeg format, for space saving on the memory stick used - this also adds noise by degrading the uncompressed image using a lossy compression process ... that is it throws away information that cannot be retrieved afterwards - it also does this in small block sizes by comparing levels of surrounding image pixels and is a processing model based on the eye's perceptual model ... so we have to be careful when enhancing, that the compression process hasn't added previously hidden image compression artefacts also ... when overlaying different images for enhancement this can be a problem ... so we have to be very careful about the conclusions - but Hale has worked very hard and has done a good job.

Taking into consideration the events earlier that evening when the men were seen to have entered the field without equipment and clearly without lights else they would have shown up on Keech's instruments, is it possible that they were able to construct the larger part of the formation in the one hour and forty-five minutes that had elapsed?

Gary King and Paula Presdee-Jones joined Keech about 1.30am. At 3.08am there was a huge flash that lit up the whole field but was of such short duration that Keech said that if you had blinked at that moment you would have missed it.

At approx: 3.15am the picture taken at that time shows a large shadow in the field.

Two of the witnesses King and Presdee-Jones raced down the hill whooping with joy and excitement and were the first people to enter this gigantic formation. They said the fallen crop was so fresh and springy that as they stepped on it, it sounded like breaking glass. It is one of the most magical events of ones life to be the first person to step into a new crop circle.

When Keech entered the formation about 4.50am, his dog once again became excessively agitated and wolfed down quantities of fallen crop and promptly went down a tramline and was sick twice. I have many reports of people compulsively eating the fallen crop.

The formation stretches for 1033 feet and is 500 feet wide and consists of 150 plus circles, the largest measuring 184 x 164 feet. Interestingly many circles are ellipses not circles. The ellipses were shown to be exactly in relation to the slope and gradient of the land. An indication that the crop circle force was descending from above.

The flattened crop covers nearly 2.25 acres or 87,000 square feet and when standing in the top part of the formation it is impossible to see the lower part and vice versa, making it impossible to humanly construct any accurate image or communicate from one end to the other.

The mathematics contained in this formation are complicated fractals hence its name the Fractal Necklace.

I was lucky enough to fly over it just seven hours after it appeared and seeing it from above was amazing. It was so enormous we had to fly up to about 2000 feet in order to get the whole formation in the frame. Interestingly the field looked flat from the air and it wasn't until I went into it that I realised quite how hilly and undulating it was.

Each year I organise a day when we conduct scientific research. This year we were measuring the endocrine system to see how the hormone levels might be affected, also how our body organs might react. Hazel Naughton of Nutrivital (ex. Biotech Health) wrote telling me that

"We tested 8 researchers on the Asyra machine. The first test was carried out indoors at the Avebury study centre, the 2nd, about an hour later, was conducted on the edge of the field near the crop circle and the 3rd test was carried out in one of the large circles of the crop circle itself. We carried out all three tests within 2 hours so that the effects of eating and drinking would not alter the results. (Again I'll email which tests were carried out from work but briefly we tested the baseline which consists of the main areas of the body to see where there are energy imbalances, the causal issues behind these imbalances and hormones).

There were 5 who showed increased energy imbalance when in the circle. Lucy (from 5to 7), Janet (5-7), Anne (8-13), Jackie (6-7), Jim (4-6). Giovanni and Christopher showed less energy imbalance in the circle and Roger stayed the same.

Our tests can show the causal issues behind the energy imbalances - the library holds many thousands of reasons, from viruses to bacteria, parasites, hormones etc (a list will be included from work) but some that I found interesting as they do not come up very often are Geopathic Stress, harmful energies, polarity imbalances.

From the readings in the circle the following had these causal issues show up :-

Jackie, Christopher, Janet, Anne and Lucy. So 5 out of 8 showed up with Geopathic stress.

5 showed an energy imbalance in their kidneys when in the circle. They were Lucy, Anne, Giovanni, Jackie and Christopher.

The 4 who started these tests with the most energy imbalances were Gianni, Christopher, Jackie and Anne. All 4 showed a kidney imbalance in the circle and 3 had an immune system response in the circle - hopefully showing some healing taking place. Certainly both Gianni and Christopher's readings were greatly improved when in the circle. The exception to this was Anne but her immune system had shown up from test 1 which suggests that her immune system was already working hard at bringing her back to balance which would explain it not showing up when in the circle.

4 out of the 8 showed a Gallbladder imbalance in test one and they were all balanced in test 3. They were Anne, Jackie, Christopher and Gianni. Gianni's actually showed up as having increased energy in test 3 which I found interesting as he has had his gallbladder removed.

4 showed an increased hormonal activity when in the circle. Lucy, Janet, Gianni, and Christopher.

After we had concluded the tests several of us lay down in various parts of the formation. Two people came into the same small satellite circle with me and we all experienced feelings of immense and peace and euphoria. We felt as thought we were in our own interdimensional energy space and quite apart from the outside world. I have experienced this before and call it the `Cathedral Effect`. We also felt as though our energy levels had been considerably raised.

The following day many of the people who were present with me experienced strange effects. Indeed I have had many reports sent to me by people who also encountered strange happenings. A man who visited the formation on the first morning took 4 camera batteries with him. Three were newly charged rechargeable batteries; the fourth was a completely new non-rechargeable battery. To his dismay he was only able to take four pictures as one by one the batteries drained as soon as he put the into this camera.

A woman who took her Remote Keyless Car Entry Device into the formation with her, found on her return to her car that her device has been completely wiped, all the information had been erased and it was now unusable! The information can be erased or reset when exposed to strong Ultra Violet light of a certain wavelength whilst the flash ram can be cleared or scrambled with an electrical charge.

The controller chip would need a significant electrical charge to disrupt operations along the lines of an EMP (Electro Magnetic Pulse).

Hazel Naughton who had been with me in the small satellite circle after we had concluded the tests and who ran around skipping like a school girl and who had lain flat on the ground, reported that she had suffered from appalling nightmares (the type that wake one up in a muck sweat they are so terrible), panic attacks and vibrating fingers; she also found it very hard to concentrate. These effects lasted for almost a week. George Petry reported

"I've been very weary but not aching, and mentally unfocussed, particularly yesterday where I got no work done....just pottering and talking with people. Sleep has been very disrupted and unsatisfying. I woke this morning at 01.29 and never really got back into a deep sleep."

Anne Leonard, Vice President of the Dowsing Society, financial adviser and founder of Operation New World, at www.opnewworld.co.uk wrote about how she felt the following day "

felt dizzy and dopey. I don't know how else to describe it but really the day floated by somehow. I had a letter to sign and send off and I WAS NOT ABLE TO DO IT. "

I had not heard from Christopher Weeks so telephoned him on the Thursday after our visit. He told me that unlike the others he had wanted to get out of the circle almost as soon as he entered. His heart was thumping and he felt unwell. He told me that subsequently he had had panic attacks, terrible dreams, depression and his mind had been like 'treacle'. He had been unable to get on with his work.

The night after our scientific tests, I woke at 1.20am with the most terrible pains running from inside my toes all the way up my shinbone to just under my knees. I tumbled out of bed and clung on to the side of the bed for what seemed like an eternity. The pain was excruciating and I did not know how long I was going to be able to cope with such a degree of agony. After approximately 10 minutes the pain went leaving a dull ache. I felt sure my legs would be covered in bruises the following morning but to my amazement there was not a blemish to be seen. However my legs ached for the next five days. I am a crampy person but this was something quite different, my muscles were not in spasm, also it seemed that the pain was located close to or IN my shinbone.

My experience reminded me of a report sent in by someone who had entered the formation on the morning it had appeared and who had knelt down on the flattened crop

"I went into the formation 1.30pm and had left the field itself by 2.30pm. Time of the first 'spasm' to both legs: eight and a half hours later, lasting for about twenty minutes. Then there was a gap of about 3/4of an hour and then I had another 'spasm 'on the right leg only, same area. First event: I was walking normally from a sofa in my living room towards my hall, when some 20ft from the sofa, the sudden onset of pain some forced me to the floor, due to the complete seizure of both legs. The pain was generated from beyond the toes to just below the knee. Up the line of the shinbone. It was not in the muscles - all of which were quite relaxed during this experience. I am not a 'crampy' person, and want it on record that this experience, while producing very acute physical responses - did NOT actually occur within the bone or leg itself. I also immediately knew that this was related to my earlier visit to the crop formation in East Field. So I waited it out, while testing my ability to stand up from time to time. As soon as it ended, I staggered into my kitchen and treated it by drinking cider vinegar with honey and hot water. The second attack to the right leg occurred after I had gone to bed. It was also unstoppable, even in trying to bend, tense and straighten muscles - there was no way of stopping the pain which again focused on the length of the shinbone. Again the muscles were completely relaxed. However, knowing that this was a crop event, I used my mind to control the pain, get out of bed and go and get more cider vinegar, honey and hot water. Although I had a lingering sensation in the area around and external to, my right leg only, for several days after the event - it did not come back. Given that my events, occurring outside the physical body, do not concur with the actual physical symptoms of Peroneal nerve problems, I am thus far of the conclusion that this event occurred in the etheric but was 'picked up' by the sensors in the physical body. Perhaps surprisingly, I find myself, grateful for the experience - it is still most educational!"

In order to try and get a scientific explanation I eventually went to see my doctor who ruled out any vascular condition due the fact that my legs were not bruised.

She said I had described a nerve pain. We have a nerve called the Peroneal that is associated with the sciatic nerve originating in the L5 lumber spinal chord which would act as a neuro-transmitting agent, being triggered as a result of some unknown energy force, possibly electromagnetic. It would appear that the pain was as a result of a change in the current transmitting through nerve cells.

Another member of the team told me that she had also been woken with terrible leg pains during the following night and had been unable to get back to sleep.

A report came from a man as he approached the formation from the direction of the silage pit which lies by the road running from Alton Barnes to Pewsey. As he neared the formation his vision became 'whurry' and his whole vision split into two halves with a horizontal line separating the two halves. One section going one way, the other section going the opposite way. His vision was clear in the middle. He does not wear spectacles and has normal vision. He did not see any change in the colours and it has not happened to him before or since. Could the cause be due to his normal muscular conversion being spontaneously distorted? The eddy currents in his brain seemed be affected. We have neurons that run to intraocular muscles.

A woman who on entry was as excited ` as a schoolgirl all over again and full of life`, went from one circle to the next, each one feeling different. She then started to feel that everything was not 'OK', couldn't relax and felt nauseous.

Another report "I made a short meditation, drawing down the power of Sound, Light and Love. Felt like standing in the warm sunshine, very happy. Jerked out of the meditation by a helicopter right overhead. When I opened my eyes I saw the wheat and surroundings in black and white. No colour for 30 seconds. Never experienced altered vision before" N.B. Thirty seconds is a long time.

Still more from East Field 070707. A visitor from Canada wrote: "After lying down for about ten minutes, I proceeded to stand up, at which point, half way up, I was strongly pulled backwards to the ground, hitting my head and back very hard. As I was getting up, I felt and saw a circular motion around me like waves of energy going very fast especially to the side on the right behind me going very fast. It took me a couple of days to find the words to describe how I felt. I felt I had become part of two magnets coming together."

When I wrote back suggesting that her symptoms sounded like a 'Drop Attack', she replied " I am not looking for an answer to what happened to me. Imagine being picked up by a very large wrestler and THROWN DOWN with all his might on to you back, then you have some sense of what happened."

Ann Shield, Win Keech's girl friend wrote telling me that

"I entered the circle at about 5.00 am in the morning, (fourth person in) and it felt electric and buzzy - making the hairs on my arms stand on end. I felt euphoric too while in the circle, but after I'd left it felt that I didn't want to go back there, and in fact was very keen to return home to North Wales, as planned for that day. I thought this a strange reaction on my part, as I have been accompanying Win on these research trips for a couple of years, and this was what we'd been waiting for, yet I didn't seem to want anything to do with it - very puzzling, when I look back?

When I got back to North Wales that afternoon, I was very excited and told lots of friends about it. I had a strange experience that afternoon, when I called my son in London to tell him about it. I expected his usual cynicism and scepticism, but as I was describing it and telling him that we'd spoken to people in the Silent Circle cafe, he replied that he was actually looking at a picture of the Silent Circle in the Daily Express as we were speaking!!! Just a strange coincidence, but interesting!

I am not prone to nightmares, but had some horrible ones, probably for about 2 weeks afterwards. I can't remember them now, but they were nasty and stayed with me all day, dreams of death, injury etc.

I had a sore throat and sore eyes also for about 2 weeks

I am not generally a moody person, quite laid back really, but felt very angry for a long time - probably a month or even more? I am a counsellor, so fairly self aware, and again, am generally a positive person, not given to dwelling on negatives. I tried to find all sorts of explanations for why I felt so bad for so long, but there didn't seem to be any tangible reason

I also had a disruption to my menstrual cycle

Another odd thing had happened the day before, when Win and I were on the top of Knapp Hill, trying to find a suitable place to set up the cameras. It was very windy and rainy and I had been taking photos of the Golden Ball circle and just sitting on top of the hill with my dog, Blue, When we decided to go down the hill again, I felt incredibly energised, and the dog was excited too. We ran all the way down the hill, and I wasn't even out of breath when I reached the bottom????? (Although I'm not totally unfit, I'm not that fit either!)

All in all, although I was thrilled that Win had captured the amazing footage after all this time, and bowled over to be there to see it ,and be in it so soon after it was formed, I don't think the experience had a positive affect on me. It also made my dog vomit!"

These are just a few reports I have received, certainly the effects reported have been the most extraordinary and varied that I have ever received from one formation. Thousands of people visited this event and I would be most grateful to hear from anyone else who experienced anything strange as I am building up a dossier.

To find any of these in a normal everyday environment is most unusual.

(There have also been instances in the past when credit cards have also been wiped clean!)

Plants kindly collected by Mallet from East Field 070707 were sent to Jim Lyons who reported that:.....

"I have been in touch with my researcher Fabien Deswartes of Green Chemistry who is a leading UK expert on wheat straw and its uses. They will analyse the oils from two samples of the East Field formation. The analysis they do is quite unique and we have no idea what may turn up but it will be world first. It takes time as it uses CO2 extraction processing which is a very sensitive technique. They will then use gas chromatography which will tell us exactly which oils are involved. They have a large database so will be able to tell us exactly what has happened to the straw (if anything)! "

Herewith his written reply -

....".I carried out some wax analysis using Gas Chromatography (GC) just before Xmas to look at the chemical composition of the wax covering the surface of the two samples you gave me. Unfortunately, there is no appreciable differences between the two wax extracted - which indeed are very similar to waxes from other wheat varieties. Sorry it did not work out!"

"The results were inconclusive. This result does however tie in with Dowsing results which indicated very little variation in crop energy across the formation"

"This formation was a very puzzling one since I've never seen anything before that did not follow a consistent pattern. For example, in the first page of my report, you'll notice I have Table I showing significantly altered node lengths in the control plants taken at different quadrants of the field.

Page 1, Research Report from Pinelandia Biophysical Laboratory, August 12, 2007, by W. C. Levengood. Full report reproduced below in More Information.

"One of the characteristics of wheat is how uniformly it grows and how you can depend on controls to give you an idea of what's going on in the field. But in this East Field, couldn't do that. In the northwest quadrants, the samples Charles Mallett took there showed statistically significant in node length and a decrease in seedling development factor. Again, neither one of them (as control samples) should show any significant difference between the northwest and the southeast and yet the control plants collected from those parts of the field outside the formation were significantly affected."

A simple bimodal distribution, in this case a mixture of two normal distributions with the same variance but different means. The figure shows the probability density function (p.d.f.), which is an average of the bell-shaped p.d.f.s of the two normal distributions.

" I have read the seeds growth analysis. The bi-modal effect is no surprise to me. There is a lot of evidence (not yet totally watertight) that the basic mechanism of formation is indeed two phases. Firstly, the triggering effect which is electrostatic discharge to ground (just like a lightning strike). For East Field thus seems to have been very dramatic and hence one would suspect that crops would be affected directly by this process, which influences growth rate in its own way. This is not normally of such great importance. The second effect is the release of energy from underground water - this is key to all earth energy effects, certainly not uniquely crop circles. There are a large number of underground streams in East Field with lots of crossing points between them giving rise to many possible centres for energy release. The rising bubbles of energy which grow as they rise breaking through the surface is the normal mechanism for crop energisation. This comes from the microwave frequencies associated with the gyration (circulating) of electrons around the magnetic field lines. This is a standard mechanism in the ionosphere which in this case effectively extends to the ground. Therefore we are not introducing any new physics here, simply extending its normal regime of operation. This process is the electron avalanche which we are also studying here in connection with other plasma phenomena.

One further point; you may recall me talking about the strange dowsing results I was getting. There was not the normal marquee roof shape energy distribution over each circle one normally gets. The results were remarkable uniform across each circle. This was quite unique! Also, I found it extremely difficult to concentrate on trying to measure things; not normal for me! East Field is unusual in having many underground streams across the field with many crossing streams. It is this arrangement of underground water that gives rise to so many blind springs and vortex centres which are each a potential source for a circle. Hence we get many multi element formations in this location.

I am pursuing getting the water results ASAP."

Indeed the results of the water I buried inside and outside seemed to correspond with Levengood's findings. There was very little overall change in the samples.

"Average change 18.3% certainly not dramatic. Even the buried control went up which is interesting though not surprising. At least these results are compatible with the general feeling that lots of energy was spread fairly evenly. I would at least have expected under normal circumstances to have seen at least one result near the centre of a circle to have shown a figure of say getting on for 4mg/l.

Due to these results we decided to do more tests. The first one being to send one of my 100 ml bottles from the same batch as those I had used this year but which had not been buried.

The Nitrate content is approx the same as the Yatesbury control samples and considerably lower than the two bottles that were buried inside the Yatesbury formation.

In order to try and establish a constant base line we conducted a further test on two previously unopened bottles of Volvic water that had been bought from two different shops and taken directly from the shops to the laboratory without being opened or transferred to other bottles. We will now be able to use these results as the fundamental baseline data for future reference.

Whilst every care is taken to ensure that the Results from Analysis are as accurate as possible, it is important to note that the analysis relates to the sample received by the laboratory, and is representative only of that sample. No warranty is given by the laboratory that the Results from Analysis relates to any part of a field or growing area not covered by the sample received. It is important to ensure that any soil, leaf, silage or fruitlet sample sent for analysis is representative of the area requiring analysis and that samples are obtained in accordance with established sampling techniques. A leaflet containing instructions on how to take soil, leaf, herbage, silage and fruit samples for analysis is available from the laboratory on request.

Date Printed : 01/02/2008

We conducted one further test on the unopened bottles of water that Christopher Weeks and I had buried in the Ogbourne St George formation in June 2003 Wind of Change

You will note the enormous increased levels in these results and it just shows what a significant formation it was:

The results are tantalising so far and whereas it is too soon to draw any rigid conclusions they are pointing us in the right direction for next year when we hope we will be able to have definite results. In good science we should not pre-empt conclusions before we have all the results. In 2008 we will be using Mass Spectrometer analysis.

Jim Lyons comments,

"The spectrum analysis is very similar to the NIR work we did earlier. We will use water and identify from the spectrum which mineral is which and how they vary in relative proportion within the formation.

"`Water analysis (ADAS SA3 test)over several years has shown significant changes in nitrate levels for bottles buried within formations. This is analogous to nitrate tests undertaken on crops as well as soil. The mechanism for these changes are considered to be due to electrical discharge effects which bind Nitrogen-N & Oxygen -O together to form nitrates.

The situation in water samples is more difficult to comprehend. Chemically the only possible process is for air within the bottles 80% N, 19% O to be absorbed and dissociate within the water. How this process occurs requires further investigation. The changes in both Potassium and Sodium levels indicate that their nitrates in solution are undergoing some dissociation.

It is now known that for future water testing as above, an additional unburied sample from the same original source of water is needed to act as the true base line value. Quantitative changes on nitrates and their parent elements need to be undertaken to very possible mechanisms. In addition, it seems appropriate to undertake further sample testing using Mass Spectrometer analysis. This will indicate much more clearly how nitrate levels change during the bottle burying process.`"

The rest of the season seemed somewhat of a damp squib by comparison. However we were graced with some beautiful events such as the Ashbury `Butterfly`. The farmer kindly allowed people to visit the formation by appointment requesting a small donation. He marked out the way into the field and the signs guided us to the formation thereby making it easy for visitors to find their way and the farmer protecting his undamaged crop at the same time. I wish more farmers would adopt this method as it is to everyone's advantage. The person who felt as though she had been flung down by a wrestler whilst visiting the 070707 formation suffered the same symptoms to a lesser degree in this formation.

There were other glorious formations at Martinsell Hill, Chute Causeway, Chute, Wiltshire.

The awe inspiring Escher cube formation at Sugar Hill, Upper Upham also produced some strange effects:

"I'm afraid the Sugar Hill formation has been the death knell of my idiosyncratic mobile! Visited the formation late yesterday morning (4th August). Wanted to ring a friend to say it was worth a visit, but could only get a minimal signal - took phone down tramline, and no signal at all, so decided it was because the field was in a dip. But the signal has never returned - tried in various places all the way home; once got a message on the screen saying Access Denied, but apart from that nothing. Battery OK, just no signal. Boosted battery when I got back, but nothing doing! Will take mobile into the shop sometime and see what they say, and will let you know."

An addendum 3 days later:

"Quite extraordinary - switched the mobile on several times yesterday to check for signal. Nothing. Same again this morning. Met friend for lunch and was telling her the story of its demise, switched it on, and suddenly a faint signal, but didn't last long enough to make a call. Same again ten minutes later. But half an hour later, full signal and full service resumed. So it had been out of action for about 48 hours, and now seems back to normal - though whether normal is normal, or its own version remains to be seen!"

All in all this was a most an interesting and intriguing year and the water research results have left us with some exciting results which will lead us to make some amendments and adjustments in our methodology next season.

Again many thanks to everyone who has kindly sent me reports of their experiences. I am enormously grateful to you all for taking the time to complete what must seem a lengthy and awkward form. Please keep them coming in as my research depends on you. Due to your help I now have the largest database in the world in this area of research into the field of electromagnetic fields on living systems.

Also my huge thanks to Jim Lyons, Rodney Hale, Roger Taylor for their much valued contributions and to my web master Paul Vigay.

Any donations towards this exciting research would be very much appreciated as I am completely self funded.

live but there is always the element of the unknown, that special illusive quality that escapes the rational mind and takes us into unchartered realms beyond the reach of man and machines.

An event was sent to me by Rhian Gibbons after she had visited the circle behind Avebury stones at Avebury Manor. “My sense of hearing seemed more acute. I also sensed coloured orbs and a mist at certain points. Felt that I was being observed. A great sense of peace prevailed for the rest of the evening.” However she goes on to say “My hands became red and engorged and throbbed from side to side as if I became part of an energy circuit.” As more and more unexplained reports come, it seems to indicate that we are not dealing with the crop circle phenomenon alone but that these effects show direct links to the effects associated with ancient sites and energy lines that criss cross our planet and which expand and contract according to the movements of the tectonic plates of the Earth.

As always I am enormously grateful to all who nobly take the time to fill in and complete my rather lengthy questionnaires. All the questions are important as they tell us what is happening or has happened to that person and without your help our scientific research would not progress. Our research continues apace. Much is starting to be understood about this phenomenon, much is left still to understand. Our work and aims to improve our methodology wherever possible continue.

My profound thanks also to all the participants who gave their time and energy in order to contribute to our Scientific Research day, in particular to the Scientists who continue to play an essential part in this research. To Jim Lyons who gives of his time unstintingly throughout the year and produces excellent diagrams as do Drs Konstantin Korotkov, Konstantin Pavlidis and many others. I am also grateful to all the farmers who kindly allow us into their fields in order to visit the circles. We must respect the fact that we are guests on their land.

My thanks also go to Andy Potter, who on the tragic death of Paul Vigay has gallantly stepped into the breach and has taken on the running of my web site.
